In-Context editing

PhraseApp comes with an In-Context Editor for Rails, AngularJS, Django and Symfony. You can edit your copy or translations directly on your site without having to deal with localization files at all.

Your copywriters and translators will see the context of a certain text. While changing it they can immediately see if the length of the text fits in the given space or what the intention of a certain piece of text is.

Free your developers from having to deal with the content and structure of localization files by automating translation workflow with our API.
